Hugo van der Goes and the Procedures of Art and Salvation.
Turnhout, Brepols, 2008 Hardback, original editor's jacket, english, IV+178 pp., 42 b/w ill. + 95 colour ill., 220 x 280 mm. ISBN 9781905375158.
Studies in Medieval and Early Renaissance Art History (HMSAH 49). Hugo van der Goes is a towering figure in the history of art. Hugely original, he exerted a massive influence, pushing the portrayal of volume, motion and light to its limits while exploring an inherited Christian iconography in profoundly new ways. This book identifies the artist?s painterly procedures as well as the religious practices and hopes his painting served. Focusing on Hugo?s masterpiece, the Portinari Altarpiece, Koster pictures the painter, his patron, and the wider public as a set of diverse forces fuelling this artist?s achievements. Painted in the Netherlands for a Florentine chapel, the altarpiece also reflects artistic exchange in the Fifteenth Century. Koster presents a ground-breaking technical examination of Hugo?s triptych and for the first time, readers can access all of the evidence in a high-resolution and easily-navigable form ? and for a work of supreme historical importance. But this book also studies the work?s origins in the Modern Devotion movement, Hugo?s personality, the machinations of a wealthy Italian donor, and the patterns of response within a church setting. Rich in information, wide-ranging in its sources, and original in its understanding of Hugo?s aims, this book also places ? uniquely ? the tools of its analysis in the hands of specialists and general readers alike.
Jan van Mieris (1660-1690) : His Life and Work / catalogue raisonne.
, Casae, 2021 Hardcover, 182 pages; ENG.edition; 305 x 215 x 16 mm, NEW, illustrated in color / b/w. ISBN 9789083103112.
Jan van Mieris was trained by his famous father Frans, and worked in the tradition of the Leiden 'fijnschilders'. Art historian and former owner M.J. Ripps about his Self-Portrait: "The theme of the artist with the tools of his trade to hand has a robust tradition on both sides of the Alps. In the middle sixteenth-century artists such as Catherina Sanders van Hemessen (c. 1500 - 1566) and Sofonisba Anguissola (c. 1532 - 1625) memorably depicted themselves with brushes, palette, and Mahlstick, as did leading artists of the subsequent generations. Jan van Mieris' self-portrait is in dialogue with that of his father Frans, and engages a tradition that ultimately reaches back to Rogier van der Weyden (1399/1400 - 1464) and forward to Rembrandt van Rijn (1606 - 1669) - critical reference points with which the elder and younger Mieris would have been well acquainted. And by placing themselves at a ledge, father and son invoked a pictorial tradition with roots in Raphael's iconic portrait of Castiglione. In this little self-portrait, thus, grand traditions are encapsulated in miniature."

This magnificent and unprecedented three-volume set showcases one of the world?s most important collections of twentieth-century Venetian glass?1.000 masterpieces marvelously photographed and cataloged by a renowned expert in the field.

Through Marino Barovier?s expertly insightful texts, readers will learn the evolution of the techniques, forms, colors, and tastes in Venetian glass during the Novecento?a century of sociopolitical, historical, and cultural change of egregious magnitude. Each glass object is described in terms of its aesthetic beauty, style and proportions, artistic quality and rarity. The author describes the technical difficulties of the realization and the perfection of the technique that went into each piece. He also considers the designer?s standing; the significance of the manufacturers and glass masters; and their historical importance. Photographed with exceptional clarity and quality, the works are presented in remarkable full-page spreads, grouped by manufacturer, designer and type. The result is an impeccable and invaluable reference work reflecting the latest scholarship, that will appeal to glass experts, collectors, and anyone interested in modern glass art and design.
Caspar Netscher and late seventeenth-century Dutch painting / catalogue raisonn of the paintings
, Aetas Aurea, Vol. XVI , Cloth bound with dusjacket, as new !!, 2002. 4to., 542 pp. text, 378 ill. (33 full-page colourplts). ISBN 9070288370.
Caspar Netscher (1635/6-1684) was one of the most acomplished and successful artists active in the Netherlands during the latter part of the seventeenth century. Paradoxically, however, the same factors that made him so successful during his lifetime and into the eighteenth century also occasioned his exclusion from the modern canon of seventeenth-century Dutch painting, for his art represents a decisive move away from the hearty egalitarian aesthetic that prevailed during the earlier part of the century. Responding to (and helping define) his patrons' desire for international style and sophistication, Netscher's exquisite portraits and subject pieces are unmistakably Dutch, yet are imbued with an elegance more in keeping with progressive pan-European tastes.This is the first full-length study to examine the work of this important Dutch artist The text is complemented by an appendix of documents relevant to the artist (most previously unpublished), and concludes with an exhaustive catalogue raisonne of the paintings. The latter contains detailed information on 220 accepted paintings by the artist, 44 problematic attributions (including some compositions known only through copies and works that involve a significant amount of studio assistance); 470 rejected works; and 388 paintings mentioned in the literature prior to 1800 but presently untraced.
